2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.

[Chuckie Finster 22571]

That's pretty clear from the lack of public enthusiasm from Trump supporters - in 2020, they were like fucking Crossfitters or Navy SEALs - they would tell you their life story without you asking and they wouldn't shut the fuck up about it, or in the case of MAGA, they had to have a sign or a sticker or that fucking hat displayed somewhere in their vehicle or on their property.
Now it's odd to see MAGA signs.

“This lack of public enthusiasm is exactly what will attract the historic amount of Trump support shown in our polls from people who have never voted before” - Nate Silver, probably

He’s proving that they are all bark by themselves or in small groups. They need the dynamics of a large group to feel empowered.

Saw two dumbasses at Meanwhile Brewing this past weekend in Austin... one wearing her blue Trump 2024 shirt and a MAGA hat with flair.  The other one wearing a MAGA hat.  Looked like dumbasses.

i'm becoming a bit sanguine about this election season.  i've decided there is no such thing as information that will give any insight into the 2% margin either direction that this will end up being, so no use continually mining for it.  my next six months just really opened up.

Pretty much where I’m at too. I live in Texas. I’m going to vote. I’m not going to phone bank or volunteer because you know what?  If people can’t see this for what it is, we deserve everything coming to us. 
 

This isn’t some devious, well-disguised nemesis that is infiltrating us. They are doing it right out in the open. They are telling us. Fuck us all if we make the wrong choice.

Oh a bad choice will be made, and I doubt he wins by only 2% or less. Prepare your anus.

That's utterly false.  Nobody is obligating you to vote for Trump.  You are CHOOSING to.  If the choice is that shitty...then DON'T PICK IT.

Yet, they will.  Because -- and this is important -- they WANT TO.  They LIKE HIM.  Fuck, even the people who say "well, he says some stuff I don't like, but I'm still voting for him" are LYING.  THEY LIKE HIM.  THEY LIKE THE CRUELTY.  THEY LIKE THE CORRUPTION.  THEY LIKE THE "FUCK YOU" TO EVERYONE ELSE.  You are in denial about how shitty other people are, and about how shitty you are.  Not in denial, actually....just more lying.

A shitload of people say they didn't vote for Trump.  They did.

A shitload of people say they won't vote for him.  They will.

Conservatives are liars.  It's the essence of their being these days, it has supplanted all other beliefs.

[4th&Five 41444]

He literally doesn't know what "contraceptive" means.

 

Trump told Pittsburgh CBS affiliate KDKA “we’re looking at that” when asked if he supports any restrictions on a person’s right to contraception, adding that he would release a policy on the issue “within a week or so.”

Hours later, Trump insisted on Truth Social he does “not support a ban on birth control, and neither will the Republican party,” blaming the interpretations of his comments as “a Democrat fabricated lie, misinformation/disinformation.”

And if you vote GQP, you voted for him.  You vote for him, you vote for the people who relentlessly protect and enable him and who will provide him the cover and the ground forces to destroy the Republic.  That's reality.

Well I enjoy doing it. It’s great fun. Don’t be a pussy.  Comparing Sela Ward to a midget Bangle is not fair to anyone.

Yes I lean conservative.  I’ve always hated Trump and was vocal about that before I exited several years ago.

If a reporter asked Trump, “What do you think about republicans in red states wanting to give all unmarried males over 25 the right to conscript their choice of a local unmarried 18-25 year old at an annual mandatory barn dance for marriage, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers style, in order to encourage procreation?”

his answer would be “Our people are looking into it.”

I wouldn't say Hoffs is a 'midget.'  She is probably about 5'3" or so.  Below average, but not 'little people.'  Plus she looked like she was all legs and perm.

Wait, you're not Bolivian?  You keep taking me to all those joints with Charque and Saltenas.  WTF dude?  

 

Anyway, still blows me away to this day that apparently on a website filled so many middle-aged white and hispanic dudes.  Most of whom are in Texas, a solid pro-Trump state and our poster group numbers in the thousands that we only have like 9 folks that have admitted to voting for Trump.  Or are we still doing that thing where we say, "Look Lobo, I don't advertise my politics and voting like some others on here.  Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to put on my red hat, move my Trump flag from my boat to my truck.  And then vote for Trump in the primary which is totally not public record.  Oh wait.  Shit."

This.  I flat-out don't believe people who say and believe in lots of Trumpy things, but then say they don't vote for him.  These times have shown that ZERO is the amount of trust we should have, and that's where my trust level is pegged.

She's 5'2", and both highly adorable and aging appropriately.  I dig that, no apologies, no ragrets.

But there are many other quite attractive brunettes in my stable of "women who haven't gotten a restraining order against me, but only because they haven't seen the need to do so yet."

Hayley Atwell, for example....

Or Sarah Lancaster:

You know, if we're tossing candidates for sexy time with Brisket out there.

I don’t recall ever saying anything Trumpy, ever. None of those hold a candle to Ward. You have a thing for brown eyes, whereas my MAGA worldview leads me to blue and green eyes only.
